[Scam phone calls inciting uneasiness ！] Scam phone calls in the city, deceiving phone companies ！ - Threats of "your cell phone will stop working".

Today, in the Tennodai area, we received a fraudulent call from a telephone company saying that
your telephone contract will be terminated in two hours.
Scam phone calls are being made to Abiko citizens to make them feel anxious.
The scammers bring up a variety of topics to stir up a sense of uneasiness.
These callers will now ask for money, saying things like
it costs money to get your phone working
if you don't pay, you will go to court
etc.

Also, landline phones used to have
names, phone numbers, and addresses
published in phone books and other places decades ago. That big data from decades ago is a
"treasure trove"
for fraudsters. Be aware that landlines are a constant target, and consider living without one.

[Phone de scam is countermeasure by phone ！ ]
- Let's show the seriousness of Abiko citizens
・ Scammers are upgrading their phones, so upgrade your phones to phones with call recording function to block scams ！ ！
・ Always set your phone to voicemail and do not answer until you hear a recorded message.
